NARRATIVE WRITING


once I went on an old fashioned rowing boat suddenly as if by magic we ended up in the middle of no where. Then I saw a little island then I remembered something the day before I was reading a book about the pirate islands thats it thats where we were we were on the pirate islands. As soon as we got to land everyone wanted to rest. Another thing I remembered about in book was that there is supposed to be a treasure hidden somewhere on the pirate islands. There are also mean old pirates after the treasure. The treasure is a treasure chest filled with jewels. The red ruby will grant you any wish. I knew what everyone wanted to wish for everyone wanted to go home. I found old fishing rods hammocks and spades. I got the spades and told everyone to start digging. We were going to look for the buried treasure. Those mean old pirates just wanted the jewels. That night I dreamed what it would be like if those mean old pirates stole the treasure and we would be stranded on the island forever.We needed to find that ruby and fast. As quiet as a mouse I got out of bed and decided to search for the treasure I started to walk and just then I bumped into my sister. Why was she out of bed? Maybe she was looking for the treasure to. What are you doing I asked? I am looking fo
